Spicy Jalapeño, a spirited miniature horse, arrived in dire need of care after suffering neglect from his previous owner. His hooves were so severely overgrown, curling upward by nearly six inches that walking was painful and difficult. This level of neglect not only compromised his mobility but may also lead to long-term issues like arthritis. Today, Spicy is thriving under the attentive care of dedicated staff. His vibrant personality shines through, and he often seems to forget he’s a miniature horse at all—carrying himself with the confidence of a much larger steed.

Eve, affectionately known as the “bare bear” was discovered on Christmas Eve suffering from a severe case of mange, completely hairless and vulnerable. Though she received treatment, her fur never grew back thick enough to protect her in the wild. Today, Eve enjoys the comfort of her lush, natural habitat where she climbs trees, splashes joyfully in her pool and lounges in the shade of her forest. Each day brings her the joy of play, the calm of peace and the comfort of safety she deserves.

Fraggle Rock was one of 125 animals rescued from living in deplorable conditions. Many of the animals were emaciated, living in unstable shelters and suffering from respiratory infections. Today, Fraggle Rock is thriving among a lively herd of nearly 50 goats where he spends his days roaming freely and soaking up the sunshine.

Despite the cruelty he once endured, Fraggle Rock remains remarkably affectionate. His gentle spirit shines through in the way he seeks out his caregivers, lovingly rubbing his head against their legs—a sweet signal that he’s ready for some well-deserved attention. His resilience is a testament to the healing power of compassion.

Farva was one of 150 horses rescued from a facility where they had been confined to overcrowded pens, forced to wade through thick mud, and denied even their most basic needs. Many were severely underweight, malnourished, and in heartbreaking condition.

When Farva first arrived, he was anxious and fearful during feeding time, conditioned to believe he’d have to fight for every bite. But today, Farva roams freely across 800 acres with his herd, grazing peacefully. He knows now that the grass and hay will never run out and that he’ll never have to go hungry again.
